Abstract: Abstract Triassic aluminous A-type granitoids, mostly peraluminous biotite granites, occur in various areas in the South China Block. Here, we focus biotite granites from three plutons and one granitic dike that provide new insights into… read more here.

Abstract: A-type granites have been the focus of considerable research due to their distinctive major- and trace-element signatures and tectonic significance. However, their petrogenesis, magmatic source and tectonic setting remain controversial, particularly for aluminous A-type granites.… read more here.
